Pros

This is all from a dev's perspective. * Incredibly intelligent, and fun co-workers. The hiring bar is high. * Very positive work environment, coming to work feels great every day. * Good work life balance, never had to work more than 40 hours in a week. * Great benefits. * Great pay for the area. * The opportunity to work on interesting problems. * Small team structure (in Dev at least), means your voice is regularly heard and you get input on big tech decisions. * Modern tech stack. * Modern equipment. * Fantastic middle management who are very open and easy to talk to. * Good tech direction and vision.

Cons

* Sometimes it feels like there is a lack of an overall vision coming down from upper management. * There aren't really clear paths for career growth. * Open office plan can be a pain when you're trying to focus. * Things change quick, sometimes stuff you're working on will get thrown out for something else.

Pros

Excellent benefits - 5 weeks PTO annually, free healthcare for your whole family, 401k matching Fully remote workforce Regular bonus awarded through profit sharing Casual culture, work hard play hard type of vibe You can get a lot of experience on a number of projects or collaborative work with other teams

Cons

Not a great place for people who need really structured management or tasks - you need to be self-motivated enough to get things done quickly as a remote worker, and be responsible and driven enough to be able to figure stuff out on your own as it's very trimmed-down on the management and operations side. Don't work here if you're not comfortable with shifting priorities - we work fast to try new things and pivot quickly as needed.

Pros

Remote, team before everyone was let go.

Cons

Fear culture, no communication or rather, some manipulation. No collaboration amongst other teams.
